TGOC ANNOUNCES
NEW NEW NEW
SHORT VIDEOS

For some time now those of us at THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST have been working quietly behind the scenes to produce what we are referring to as “short videos” that we can post on various Websites such as YouTube and Tangle. Ben Bailey, Kevin Pendergrass, and James Gravelle have each contributed to this effort. We now are happy to announce that the first eight lessons (ranging in length from four to eight minutes) are online
 
We believe that these short video lessons represent valuable teaching tools, especially since the videos are located on Websites other than our own. The location of these videos also increases the chances that people will learn about THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST and visit our Website to see what else we have available. In fact, we already have heard from several people who discovered us for the first time through these short videos. One Christian in Canada wrote:

While there are numerous religious videos on YouTube, and while Tangle is a religiously based Website, there are not many videos on either site that actually teach the Truth. We do not claim to be a “lone voice crying in the wilderness,” but we would like the Gospel message to be found in as many places as possible, which is in keeping with the motto that describes our mission and main goal: “Taking the WHOLE gospel to the WHOLE world!”

In just the few short weeks that our first short videos have been online, over 1,700 people have viewed them on the Tangle site alone. Currently, our short-video offerings include the following titles:

“Are You A Faithful Christian?”
“Are You Sure You Are Saved?”
“Bible Authority”
“Did You Know that The Bible Says Satan is Real?”
“Did You Know that The Bible Says There is Only One Church?”
“Did You Know that The Bible Says We Can Know We Are Saved?”
“Did You Know that The Bible Says We Should Go To Church?”
“The Thief on the Cross”

We invite you to view each of these videos, which are available at the following Web addresses:

www.tangle.com/thegospelofchrist
www.youtube.com/thegospelofchrist

We also would like to encourage you to log onto either or both of the above Websites in order to help us “spread the news” about our latest video offerings. Feel free to rate the videos, leave comments, link to them, add the two Websites to your bookmarks or favorites, and tell your friends, acquaintances, relatives, and coworkers about them. We do not necessarily expect any of our videos to become “viral” (a term used for those top videos that are watched millions of times), but the more activity our videos receive, the greater the likelihood will be that word will spread throughout both the Tangle and YouTube communities about the important, life-changing message that the videos are offering.

As time allows, we plan to produce additional short videos, which we will announce in our bi-weekly newsletter as well as on the home page of our Website.

CDs and DVDs
SENT FREE
TO ALL WHO ASK

That's right! TGOC is and has been sending media in CD and DVD formats all over the world. The media are sent absolutely FREE to all who ask.

During just the month of October 2007, we sent free media (DVDs and CDs) to 24 different states within the United States. And, we sent media to 16 different countries around the world (Argentina, Chile, Columbia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Indonesia, Kenya, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, Peru, South Africa, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe).

During May 2008, we received 298 requests (in a single month!) for free media via the media-request form on our Website. That does not include the requests that come in by phone, direct email, or postal mail. In May alone, we sent free media (DVDs and CDs) to 28 different states within the United States. During the months of January through May 2008, we have sent free media to 40 of the 50 states in America, and to 24 foreign countries (Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, Canada, Chile, Columbia, Crete, Cuba, Germany, Ghana, Guyana, India, Jamaica, Liberia, Mexico, Nepal, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Russia, Spain, Uruguay, and Zimbabwe).

In all of 2008, we had over 3,000 media requests come in via the Media Request Page, and media were sent to all 50 US States and 43 foreign countries.

Have you requested media from TGOC? If not, why not give it a try? The CDs and DVDs are, as we mentioned, completely FREE! We will even pay the postage to all US requests. Yes, there are some stipulations that have to go along with "FREE!" To cut down on abuse, we do not send full sets of media to individuals unless there is a bonafide reason to fulfill such a request. Also, we try our very best to fill all overseas requests, but with the costs of overseas shipping we do not have the ability to ship all requests to foreign countries without asking those making the requests to pay for the shipping costs. There are many requests for which we are now able to pay even overseas shipping. So, go ahead and fill out a media request today. Please be sure to include your email address because many times we need to verify the shipping address.

We are serious about our goal of "taking the whole Gospel to the whole world." Thank you for helping us try to obtain that goal. Please recommend TGOC to others, won't you? [In fact, why not forward this newsletter to friends, family members, or coworkers?]
